Where the hell has Therry been?!
Ok, for a start – I’m terribly, awfully sorry for being MIA for God knows how long. It’s been ages, and so many things have happened.
I do realise that I’ve abandoned my blog up to the point that I only get to check it a few times a month (that is provided if I still remembered!). Work’s been hectic as always, the students either bug me kill me or love me and I am always in a state of exhaustion and beyond caring by the time I get home from work.
But a few important things have happened and I can’t wait to share them with you.
First, I have acquired a new addiction slash hobby, and it’s all thanks to Toni Wahid. His crib is practically my second home now and I can safely say that Micah would feel the same way. And because he always makes sure that he poisons me with a cup of his delicious latte everytime I come to visit, thanks to him, now instant coffee tastes like some horrible shit that I refuse to call coffee. And again, thanks to him, now I know the reason why coffee shops sell coffee beans (in the past, I seriously thought people who bought coffee beans must have nothing better to do with their lives), and I also own a French press which I use religiously. Every two or three days, I would grind coffee beans and bring it to work, just so I can have my daily coffee fix, in which if I don’t, I’d get horribly cranky and fidgety.
Now you might think this is not such a big deal but coming from a girl who used to have trouble sleeping because she consumed a cup of Nescafe coffee (a cup, just the one cup!), this is a pretty big deal. I found out that specialty coffee would not prevent me from having having a good sleep. I could consume a couple of cups during the day and I’d be right as rain to sleep during the night.
The second addiction, and this is by far the most recent, it’s so fresh it’s still dewy and all; we finally have an EOS. And what I mean by ‘we’ is that Himself and I have been fascinated by our new toy, the Canon EOS 550D. Himself and I can’t seem to stop playing around with it, taking photos of things and just generally feeling smug about holding such a cool, serious-looking camera in our hands. It’s still a kit because it comes with the standard 18-55 lens (not one of those red-ringed lens!) but it’s pretty cool. Of course we’d be thinking of purchasing a much more advanced lens – soon enough!
Last but not least – I am getting married in a week.
Now; before you go, “Wh-wh-whaaaaat?!” do realise that this is simply something that Himself and I have been intending to do since three years ago. We’ve planned it a year ago, and we decided to have it done the way we’d want it to be; a nice simple outdoor ceremony that faces the beach in which our closest friends and families will attend. So after endless researches and inquiries made to different venues and hotels, we’ve chosen Ayana Spa and Resort as the most ideal place for us to get wed. We’ve emailed different hotels and Ayana by far seem to be the one who has given the best responses and tried as best as they can to cater our needs. Plus, they’ve upgraded our hotel rooms which is a pretty sweet deal!
The color theme that we’ve chosen are ivory white and yellow, which I think will look great. We’ve chosen yellow and white for the flower bouquet as well. Himself and I have got our dresses and suits ready. Mine is quirky and fun and unlike any other wedding dresses you’ve seen before, and himself looks pretty dashing in his suit I really can’t keep my hands off him!
Now that’s all for now from me – more details about the wedding will follow – I hope. Who knows, by this time next week I’d already be in paradise and having the best time of my life.

Yeaaaaay!! Can’t wait to see you in a wedding dress!!! Yeaaaaay!!!
There’s a unique story behind the dress too! And believe me when I tell you this; it looks like a wedding dress that does not look like a wedding dress. Does that make sense? LOL
first: CONGRATS!
second: why are you drinking coffee?? It’s not good I tell you! I stay away from coffee and soda, I only drink water and sometimes, green tea. It’s the best way to keep my body hydrated and healthy..
Pls post pics of your wedding later, k?
Because coffee is gooooooooooood AND it aids your body to burn more calories
Pictures? Sure thing!
I was wondering what happenned to you. Congratulations on your imminent wedding. Those coffee presses are terrific. Not only do they make great coffee but there is a whole little ritual going on with the bean grinding, water boiling thing. Incidently I’m reading a book called “the coffee trader” by David Liss – quite a good story about the noble bean.
Looking forward to seeing you soon! You, Yefta and Tony MUST come to our house to meet our four adorable brutal monsters
BTW, I’ve read The Coffee Trader.. it’s a great book, very interesting story about how we all come to love coffee!
Congratulations!!
pls post up some pix!
@PJ: Thank you! Do come to my wedding if you can make it
Yes, the whole coffee ritual is kind of interesting and I’ve learnt a lot from Toni Wahid about it. And the more I learn about it, the more I appreciate it!
@Mia: Oh don’t you worry… we are coming… very, very soon
Can’t wait to see your String Quartet!
@John: Hey! Long time no see! Sorry I haven’t been to your blog. Pics are definitely going to be posted, let’s just hope that I won’t look too fat in them LOL
